list of characters in jurassic park

The following is a list of characters from Michael Crichton's fictional series consisting of Jurassic Park, The Lost World, and Jurassic Park III.

Ray Arnold: Arnold, played by Samuel L. Jackson, ran the main control center from within the visitor's center. He was requested to turn off the power to the park and while reseting the system, was killed by a Velociraptor.
Donald Gennaro: Gennaro was the lawyer that accompanied the first group to Isla Nublar.
Dr. Alan Grant: Grant, played by Sam Neill (The Piano, Dead Calm), is a key figure in the Jurassic Franchise and an expert renowned in his field of Paleontology. John Hammond (Founder of InGen) convinces Grant and his girlfriend Dr. Ellie Sattler to take a tour of this preserve and later to endorse the park itself. In shock and amazement of discovering that InGen had successfully cloned dinosaurs, Grant quickly found out the dangers of what man could do. Mayhem struck when the dinosaurs escaped and while Grant, who previously disliked children, found himself becoming the father figure and hero for Lex & Tim. He developed a better understanding, not just of children, but also of the consequences of tampering with nature. (source: jpdatabase.net)
John Hammond: Hammond is the creator of Jurassic Park and is likened to Walt Disney with his Disneyland. Hammond is played by Richard Attenborough.
Dr. Ian Malcolm: Ian Malcolm is a mathematician appearing in Jurassic Park. He specializes in the study of the chaos theory and refers to himself as a "chaotician". Jeff Goldblum played the role of Malcolm in the Jurassic Park and The Lost World: Jurassic Park movies.
Robert Muldoon: Muldoon guarded the velociraptors before they escaped from their cage. The velociraptors outsmarted Muldoon and killed him while he was trying to hunt them.
Alexis "Lex" Murphy: Murphy is Tim's sister and John Hammond's granddaughter, and loves baseball. Ariana Richards played the role of Murphy in the movie adaption.
Tim Murphy: Tim is Lex's brother and John Hammond's grandson. He was played by Joseph Mazzello.
Dennis Nedry: Nedry worked for John Hammond and was in charge of networking Jurassic Park's computers. In reality, Nedry was a computer hacker/cracker. In the book, he uses a file called "White_rbt.obj" as a backdoor to control these systems so he could steal embryos from Jurassic Park's labs, and sell them to Lewis Dodgson. It was his fault that the original Jurassic Park failed, as he is the one who shut off the power to the electric fences, causing the dinosaurs to escape. Right before he dies, he drops the shaving cream can with the frozen embryos inside. Wayne Knight played the role of Nedry in the movie adaption.
Dr. Ellie Sattler: She is Dr. Allan Grant's girlfriend, and joined him on the tour of InGen's dinosaur preserve.
Henry Wu: Wu was the scientist in Jurassic Park that discussed with the group about all the dinosaurs on the island being female. Wu was played by B.D. Wong.
